- the sorted() method fills a UPtrList with sorted entries. In some
places this can provide a more convenient means of traversing a
HashTable in consistent order, without the extra step of creating
a sortedToc(). The sorted() method with a UPtrList will also have
a lower overhead than creating any sortedToc() or toc() since it is
list of pointers and not full copies of the keys.
Instead of this:
HashTable<someType> table = ...;
for (const word& key : table.sortedToc())
{
Info<< key << " => " << table[key] << nl;
}
can write this:
for (const auto& iter : table.sorted())
{
Info<< iter.key() << " => " << iter.val() << nl;
}
STYLE:
- declare hash entry key 'const' since it is immutable
- without these will use the normal move construct + move assign.
This is similarly efficient, but avoids the inadvertently having the
incorrect Swap being used for derived classes.
STYLE: remove unused xfer methods for HashTable, HashSet
- unneeded since move construct and move assignment are possible
